Hailing from the beautiful city of Philadelphia, and featuring (ex) members of Stick Together, Let Down and Mother Of Mercy, BEWARE have quickly made a name for themselves by writing anthemic and passionate Straight Edge Hardcore in the tradition of bands like Chain Of Strength and In My Eyes.
Their sound is honest and aggressive, yet with a melodic undertone. Classic, timeless hardcore that rings familiar and sounds fresh at the same time. Their debut EP on Control Records features 3 songs off their well received demo, re-recorded, and 3 brand new songs. It's with great pride that we welcome them to the Control Family! Check out a song thats on the EP here: http://controlrecords.bandcamp.com/

When ex-members of a bunch of the most influential and most talked about European hardcore bands in recent memory get together to celebrate their friendship and their love for unadulterated classic hardcore, you know the world will be paying attention.
Not Afraid got together and started belting out songs, playing hardcore the way they have always loved it. There's hints of that early 80's rage, late 80's power and even some early 90's melody but all in all it is safe to say that genuine passion and raw energy is what ties it all together. The 'Be Yourself' EP features Not Afraid's first batch of songs and by the looks of things we can only expect great things from them in the future.. Check out one song from this EP here!
